Age Group: 9 Months – 2 Years
Class Size: 16
Class Overview
This formative stage of your child’s life is crucial to their future development. We provide a nurturing, stimulating and inspiring environment that helps them discover the world around them with a sense of wonder and security. Low staff-to-child ratios mean that each child receives exceptional levels of focused, personalised attention to give them the best possible start to life.
At this stage, we focus on activities that assist your child in establishing a strong foundation of social skills and an independent inquiring mind, coupled with fine motor skills and a basic introduction to concepts of numeracy and literacy. This formative period sets them up with the perfect platform from which to grow in future years.
What your child would experience in this room:
Flexible Routine:
We want to make sure your transition into the room is as smooth as possible; by following as close to your home routine, we can integrate your child into the room with ease. By keeping the routine flexible the children can explore, learn and develop in a way that supports them and your family!
Indoor and Outdoor Program:
The children can move both indoors and outdoors throughout their day, they have an undercover outdoor space so no matter what the weather we can engage in the outdoor environment.
Sensory Environments:
With the children at their most explorative age, we harness this and create different sensory environments and experiences which are not only fun but educational as well. This can include water, playdough, music and more!
